Interactive Content is the New 'Content'
Start involving and stop ignoring. Content that engages users is proving to be much more effective than traditional advertising. Key Takeaway 1: Technology has changed the way we communicate and consume information. The tried and true push marketing tactics (whether you are trying to sell a product, get or engage, attract, retain or train talent) of the past decades aren’t working anymore for 2 reasons: Technology is changing how we communicate and consume information and we are in the midst of a societal shift driven by millennials. We have to choose the right technologies to keep up, or we're in for trouble. Key Takeaway 2: Why the Millennial Audience is driving disruption in the marketplace How are Millennials different and why are we feeling an ever increasing pressure or shift in the marketplace in our efforts to reach, engage and retain this generation? 1: They are the first native technologist generation and they live online 2: They are notorious skeptics, but at the same time are very idealistic 3: They are gamers. They want interactive experiences. Key Takeaway 3: Why Traditional Push/Passive Marketing tactics are continuing to lose their effectiveness for attracting, engaging consumers. When it comes to content, the era of “if you build it, they will come” is coming to an end. The effectiveness of content marketing is no longer improved by simply pumping out more content. It has to be good, engaging and attention grabbing! Key Takeaway 4: What are the benefits of Interactive Content? Conversion: Interactive content, such as apps, assessments, calculators, configurators and quizzes, generate conversions moderately or very well 70% of the time, compared to just 36% for passive content. (DemandMetric) Comparing interactive to passive content, interactive content is somewhat or very effective at educating the buyer (93% versus 70%), differentiating from competitors (88% versus 55%) and being shared (38% versus 17%). (DemandMetric) Sharing: 30% share interactive content compared to 17% share passive content (DemandMetric) Key Takeaway 5: Boombox and Rapt Media’s observations and insights into the changing marketplace. Struggle of interactive content - Harder to think in 4 dimensions - Need more content: might need 10 minutes for a 2 minute experience - Technology is hard - Devices, browsers, operating systems - Publication in "hostile environments" Contact us: info@raptmedia.com caleb@raptmedia.com @raptmedia @Qzzr_
